Frequently Asked Questions About Coffee Co-Packing
What is coffee co-packing?
Coffee co-packing (contract packing) is when a brand partners with a specialized manufacturer to produce their coffee products. The co-packer handles sourcing, roasting, grinding, packaging, and labeling — while the brand focuses on marketing and sales.
What is the minimum order quantity for K-Cup co-packing?
Our minimum order quantity starts at 5,000 units per SKU for K-Cup co-packing. This makes it accessible for emerging brands to launch without massive upfront inventory investment.
How long does the co-packing process take?
Typical turnaround is 4-6 weeks from blend approval to finished product delivery. Rush orders may be available depending on production schedule. New product development (R&D phase) typically takes 2-4 weeks before production begins.
Can you help develop a custom coffee blend?
Yes! Our experienced roasting team works directly with clients to develop custom coffee profiles. We provide sample roasts for tasting and refinement until the blend meets your exact specifications.
